"The term anti-pornography movement is used to describe those who
argue that pornography has a variety of harmful effects, such as
encouragement of human trafficking, desensitization, pedophilia,
dehumanization, exploitation, sexual dysfunction, and inability to
maintain healthy sexual relationships. Many of those involved in the
anti-pornography movement come from religious groups opposed to it,
feminists, and individuals who feel that pornography played a major
role in the breakdown of their marriages and relationships."
Dolf Zillmann asserts that extensive viewing of pornographic material
produces many sociological effects which he characterizes as
unfavorable, including a decreased respect for long-term, monogamous
relationships, and an attenuated desire for procreation.[1] He
describes the theoretical basis of these experimental findings:

In my opinion pornography is dangerous because it is powerful. It
allows the consumer to indulge in personal gratification (i.e. lust)
without limits. it removes the cost/benefit paradigm from physical
relations and allows those who would otherwise maintain a balance view
on sex to become unbalanced (which can lead to alls sorts of nasty
consequences).
Pornography is like a drug and is very addictive. Today we are seeing
younger and younger boys becoming hooked on it.
It takes something that is great (the relationship between a man and a
woman) and pollutes it.

And also, please consider and what kind of individual would PRODUCE
pornography. Think about it. Who would do such a thing? I cannot imagine
anything but the very worst of human existence; those whom would sell their
very 'mother/daughter/girlfriend' to the highest bidder.
I've often wished why could we not go back in time and hang every slave
trader that existed in the world. They caused so much damage that we pay
dearly for now and perhaps will never entirely recover...

one out of his selection of magazine cuttings
curiously enough I encountered that very subject problem in SL
recently,
and I have had to make it abundantly clear that I'm no actress, that I
do
take personal interest in people online and privacy and...
